When loading something using dma, you have to flush the affected cache lines before dma'ing, and invalidate them afterwards. You can also flush&invalidate at once, provided the cpu won't read the area dma'ed to

well I have an initial working version, but it is very broken in that it uses puts_xfstyle_offset() so the full line gets the style instead of the subline (or just the drawn text) - though some people might like that

chu_: actually, can you put the output of "svn diff" for your current code on a pastebin site? I'm not entirely sure, but depending on what you actually changed ytet, there might be another change needed

chu_: right. The change to firmware/target/arm/imx31/gigabeat-s/usb-target.h is not in my new patch, but that's the tricky bit anyway. If that change is there, windows won't see the extra partition, but if that change is *not* there, you can't make the extra partition. That part needs some thinking to get right :)

JdGordon: There are a couple of screens currently in the manual that aren't in the list on CustomWPS (System Info screen, Time and Date Screen) - is the manual wrong, and you can't get those screens from %cs?

Once we know what exactly is needed for a full solution (which we should know as soon as you have tested the new patch), we can think of a solution that doesn't require a different build for repartitioning and using

nick-p: If you don't mind, I'll bring this patch up on the dev mailing list as soon as I find time (likely this weekend). (Alternatively, you could try finding a more experienced / respected proponent [I'm a still somewhat "young" committer], or do it yourself entirely.)

Hi all. I'm attempting to install Rockbox on my iPod Nano 2G, 4GB. I'm running Rockbox Utility on a Mac as root and my iPod is FAT32 formatted. Does it need to have the OF for Rockbox to install? For a variety of reasons, I had to just outright format it via right-click>Format, and now I'm getting "could not open iPod" when I try to install the bootloader. Oh, and I don't have access to that Windows computer anymore. Any help?

bluebrother, saratoga: I've stumbled over some MP3 files that contain a lot of 0x55 (padding?) bytes after the ID3v2 header (after id3->first_frame_offset bytes), interspersed with some "LAME3.98." strings and other junk. This defied my attempt to ID these files with a CRC (see FS #12076 for context). Any idea what that might be?

I decided to wipe most of my music off the iPod and start over, but apparently it or the OS or something thought the files were still there, because the drive was empty save .rockbox and it said 3.7 GB used.

Zxen: (1) dd the mbr to the player, (2) make sure the Mac recognizes the new partition table (probably by just dis- and reconnecting), (3) get the firmware file and extract it using unzip, (4) dd it to the first partition on the player

I just discovered a lua script for Rockbox that converts html to plain text, but it's unfinished and currently only looks for a fixed file 'test.html'. It'd be good if I could show a file selector so users can choose the HTML file to convert.

sideral: I think arguments can be passed to LUA scripts just like with binary plugins, the problem is, for a LUA script to work as a viewer, it must be compiled along with Rockbox (so it is added to the viewers list)

I was thinking of a script that would let the user select a file from inside the script when the script is run without arguments, and when opened as a viewer (with arguments) would convert the passed file without file selection UI.
